Mail to Fax gateway script for hylafax

mail2fax.sh

#!/bin/sh

# mail2fax reloaded
# modified version working 100% by stefb (for europe)
# This script allows you to send faxes through your HylaFAX box.
# It uses mpack to strip out email attachments and sendfax to do
# the fax delivery.

### Temporary dir stuff
RANDOMFAX=/tmp/faxtmp.$(dd if=/dev/urandom count=1 2> /dev/null | cksum | cut -f1 -d" ")

if [ ! -d "$RANDOMFAX" ] ; then 
	mkdir $RANDOMFAX
fi
rm -f $RANDOMFAX/*

### Some makeup (maybe not necessary anymore)
sed 's/multipart\/alternative/multipart\/mixed/' > $RANDOMFAX/_message_

JOBID=`grep -e "^subject:" -i $RANDOMFAX/_message_ | sed q | sed 's/^[^:]*: *//g'`
TOLINE=`grep -e "^to:" -i $RANDOMFAX/_message_ | sed q`
FROMLINE=`grep -e "^from:" -i $RANDOMFAX/_message_ | sed q`
if [ "`echo $TOLINE | grep '<.*>'`" != "" ]; then
        TONUMBER=`echo $TOLINE| sed -e 's/.*<\(.*[^@]*\)@.*>.*/\1/'`
else
        TONUMBER=`echo $TOLINE| sed -e 's/^[Tt]o://g' -e 's/[ ]*\(.*[^@]*\)@.*/\1/'`
fi
if [ "`echo $FROMLINE | grep '<.*>'`" != "" ]; then
        FROMPATH=`echo $FROMLINE| sed -e 's/.*<\(.*\).*>.*/\1/'`
else
        FROMPATH=`echo $FROMLINE| sed -e 's/^[Ff]rom://g' -e 's/[ ]*\([^ ]*\).*/\1/'`
fi


### Split message
munpack -q -C $RANDOMFAX _message_ > /dev/null 2>&1

### Delete all but the attachments
rm -f $RANDOMFAX/_message_
rm -f $RANDOMFAX/*.desc

### Delivery time!
echo sendfax -R -f "$FROMPATH" -s a4 -n -d "$TONUMBER" $RANDOMFAX/* >> /tmp/faxlog
sendfax -R -f "$FROMPATH" -s a4 -n -d "$TONUMBER" $RANDOMFAX/*

### Remove temporary dir
rm -rf $RANDOMFAX

hi there, im using this script in my hylafax + postfix. When im trying to send email to fax (using thunderbird) , it didnt show any JID on my faxstat, its like not working for me at all... and when im using the original version which was written by Lee. It could send mail to fax but what i got there at the another side (fax machine) only bunch of logs, my sent contents were gone.

Great, thank's a lot worked of the shell. Please be reminded to install mpack
